BG municipal utilities customers offered opportunity to recycle old appliances and receive money

For a limited time, Efficiency Smart is offering Bowling Green municipal utilities customers up to $115 for responsibly recycling an eligible refrigerator, freezer, window air conditioner or dehumidifier.

Bowling Green customers can choose between two options to responsibly recycle an appliance.

  • Attend the drop-off event on Saturday, Sept. 16. Customers who bring a working dehumidifier, mini fridge, or dehumidifier to Efficiency Smart’s drop-off event will receive $115 for each unit recycled. They will also be entered into a drawing for a free energy efficiency kit. The drop-off event will take place from 9 a.m. to noon  at the Bowling Green Public Works garage, located at 1040 N. College Drive.
  • Schedule a free pickup. Customers who schedule a free pickup of a working refrigerator, freezer, window air conditioner or dehumidifier will receive $100 for each unit recycled. Appliances can be scheduled for pickup through Sept. 30.
